HelpRe: 10 Italian feminine names
in reply to a message by Felie
Rebecca --Lovely name and definitely usable in English. I'd hesitate to use it because I hate Becky, though.
Roberta --Irredeemably frumpy.
Patrizia --Definitely better than Patricia, but still pretty frumpy. Pronunciation would be a battle in English.
Cinzia --Is it CHEEN-tsya? I don't think I like it but it could maybe grow on me. Pronunciation would be a total disaster in English.
Olga --Really unattractive.
Francesca --A perfectly good name that does nothing for me.
Rosaria --I love it. So beautiful and underused.
Rosa --Beautiful name.
Camilla --Nice but I prefer Camille and Camila.
Claudia --One of my top 5 most hated names ever. It's so incredibly ugly.
Roberta --Irredeemably frumpy.
Patrizia --Definitely better than Patricia, but still pretty frumpy. Pronunciation would be a battle in English.

Hi !!!
Yes Cinzia is CHEEN-tsya.
I agree with you that could be very hard to pronounce in English.
I dislike it because it is frumpy and has a bad sound as you know.
From this list I really love Rosa (my great-grandmother's name) and I also like Olga that seems so light and aristocratic because of the Romanov imo.
I would like Patrizio because I'm keen on Ireland (so use Patrizio instead of Patrick) while Patrizia is frumpy.
Other names are too overused or boring to me.
